Hi Wilhelm,
is it possible that the setting Aiglos II does not work correct as it is not possible inside CM:
opp=121 opn=123 opb=124 opr=128 opq=136 myp=121 myn=123 myb=124 myr=128 myq=136 mycc=130 mymob=130 myks=170 mypp=121 mypw=100 opcc=100 opmob=100 opks=100 oppp=124 oppw=124 cfd=0 sop=100 avd=0 rnd=0 sel=20 md=99

When I start it inside Arena I get a message, which not comes with your settings:
2021-12-09 09:19:39,583-->1:cm_parm default\cm_parm opk=650494 tts=134217728 opp=100 opn=100 opb=100 opr=100 opq=100 myp=100 myn=100 myb=100 myr=100 myq=101 mycc=100 mymob=100 myks=100 mypp=100 mypw=100 opcc=100 opmob=100 opks=100 oppp=100 oppw=100 cfd=0 sop=100 avd=0 rnd=0 sel=16 md=99\ShowThinkingMove=false\n

it seems CM is set to default here?

Hi Werner,
as far as I know the King engine sets only the faulty para to default and and adopt the others. It dosn't matter if the setting is possible inside CM-GUI. Hmmm...
I use the wb2uci adapter with Aiglos II.
Ok made a quick test

The King doesn't make any error message.

The Arena string should look like this, or not? How does your string look like?

cm_parm default\ncm_parm tts=64004096\ncm_parm opk=269214 opp=121 opn=123 opb=124 opr=128 opq=136 myp=121 myn=123 myb=124 myr=128 myq=136 cc=130 mob=130 ks=170 mypp=121 oppp=124 pw=124 avd=0 cfd=0 sel=23

Wait, I start Arena...

Ok, got no error with this string.
Did you set to winbord old?

Wilhelm

[Werner]

Thanks Wilhelm, yes use winboard old and the string I see is
2021-12-09 09:19:39,583-->1:cm_parm default\cm_parm opk=650494 tts=134217728 opp=100 opn=100 opb=100 opr=100 opq=100 myp=100 myn=100 myb=100 myr=100 myq=101 mycc=100 mymob=100 myks=100 mypp=100 mypw=100 opcc=100 opmob=100 opks=100 oppp=100 oppw=100 cfd=0 sop=100 avd=0 rnd=0 sel=16 md=99\ShowThinkingMove=false\n

looks like default or what? Using Arena 3.0 here.
And this is the eng
[ENGINE]

Do I remember correct: the personality editor in CM 11 does not save and I have to use CM 10 for editing?

[Wilhelm]

shouldn't it be

InitString=cm_parm default\ncm_parm opk=569186 opp=121....

in the options string?

Have you another engine with the same name?
Make a new one with a different name to try it out.
Also I use Arena 3.5.1 and the Kings as UCI

About the personality I can't say at the moment. You got me on the left feet
Have not try it for a longer time and I don't know if it works after all the updates.

[Werner]

Thanks,
so am I - did nothing with Chessmaster for a longer time

and yes - seems I have different engines with the same name, maybe 32bit and 64bit.
So forget the questions -all not easy after such a long time.

No problem Werner
I tried the editor and it saved the setting correct. The problem is that the selectivity is max 16. I haven't tried if there is a way to get higher.
